The Forever Forest

The 54,000-acre Children’s Eternal Rainforest in Costa Rica began as an idea, a few kids, and a bake sale. Word spread and children from over 44 countries raised the funds to make it happen in 1987. Here is its story with a fresh twist, as young Peter discovers that his mother was one of those original kids. What a terrific way to learn both about cooperation and a magnificent habitat! Kristin Joy Pratt has done it again with a style that kids-and environmental educators-love.

Eye-opening and relatable, The Forever Forest: Kids Saved a Tropical Treasure is the perfect activist book for kids, showing them that they, too can make a difference in saving our planet. This book doubles as an incredible earth day book for kids, encouraging discussions about conservation, climate change, and endangered animals.
